Description

Winter Stronghold is, as the name suggests, a winter map. Winter Stronghold has the All Paths modifier, which duplicates all enemies for each path with the exception of major bosses, instead of them alternating between entrances.The All Paths modifier increases all currency rewards by 10%.

Rewards

The game calculates how many Coins Coins and you receive based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. During periods of 100% more (Friday – Sunday), any earned is multiplied by 2x through the XP Boost modifier. The VIP gamepass also multiplies any earned by 1.25x through the VIP Boost modifier. These two boosts are additive. Regular boosts are multiplicative with other modifiers present on this map. Any rewards that end in a decimal point is rounded down, no matter the first figure of the leading decimal.

Strategy

All enemies, except major bosses, spawn twice on this map because of the All Paths modifier. The increased amount of enemies allows you to gain more cash by damaging enemies. The Cowboy and Golden Cowboy can also generate more cash because of this. Fallen King can spawn in either left side or right side of the map. So its best to even out towers and cover both paths While the paths do not cross on this map, there are a few spots where your towers can cover both paths. Your towers should be placed there. There are very few cliff spots on this map, limiting the amount of cliff towers you can place down. For spawner towers like the Crook Boss and Military Base, only one unit will spawn, which will go down a random path.

Patch history

When the map was first released, you could place ground towers on the middle hill. Prior to the Overhaul Update, Frost Solitude played on this map. Winter Stronghold used to appear in the Special Elevators, though this is no longer the case due to them being removed from the game. It appeared in both regular and Special Elevators. As Winter Stronghold never received its own Matchmaking statue like other special maps and is quite similar to other maps that were not considered special, like the Black Spot Exchange, it is no longer considered a special map.
